Commerce bill went into effect Tues
day. The rates to and from Balti-
more and Wheeling. the cities with
which the great bulk of our business
is done, are materially reduced. The
old first class rate to Baltimore was
81. whilst the new is 81 cents per
hundred, with a corresponding de-
crease in the other classes; and to
Wheeling the rate under the new
schedule is 10 cents lower than the
old. The rates to local stations, how
ever, have been increased. For in

Us. Our Bible tells us what God
wanted many years ago. but his
books tell what God wants now. We
are never able to reach Mormon
until the faith in their system has
been undermined. And when they
have become such infidels as to their
own system, we can begin to gain a
hold upon them. They have a pecu-
liar hatred of us. They believe that
we are their enemies and are respon-
sible for all the troubles they have
endured. They believe the ministers
Of the country are responsible for the
agitation of the polygamy matter,
and, moreover. every honest Nor
mon is supposed to have had "tes.
timOny," that is a revelation from
God, that the Book of Mormon is
his word. This testimony generally
comes in connection with the laying
on of hands, and it is beyond the
reach OF logic or argument. l am
engaged in the work Of undermining
their faith in their system, that we
may convert them. But we have a
work among the young people. They
are wholly irreligious. and have no
testimony, and yet are all members
of the Mormon church, in which all
their interests are centered. They
are rapidly becoming infdels. They
confess that one-third of their young
men are out-spoken infideIs. But
yet those young people are prejudiced
against us, but they are our material

The Honest Mormon.
Baltimore Sun. April 4th.

Baltimore Sun, April 4th.
MAY this plague spot upon our
civilization he hlOtted out" prayed
the Rev. DR.. Frank M. Ellis last
night at Eutaw Place Baptist church.
before introducing Rev. M. T. Lamb.
of Salt Lake City, Utah, who spoke
on MOrmOnism. He said: IAN I'M
converted heart is very selfish one
and conversion tends to the becom
ing smaller and Jesus becoming lar
ger. Though at first there is but little
of the | in the Mormon. it becomes
greater and greater until in the future
life it is supreme. There are two
kinds of MOrmOns, the hypocrite
who enters the church for what he
can make from it. and the sincere
hut deluded one. The majority are
sincere, but unfortunately you all
have heard nothing but the bad Nor
mon spoken of. Though honest and
sincere, the average Mormon has be-
come strong combination of good
and bad. He.professes to have more
religion than any one else. Self.
esteem is cultivated at the outset.
They will sacrifice almost anything,
and they do a great deal of praying
in certain way. They c0n6ne their
efforts to members of evangelical
churches. They have few converts
from among the unconverted, and
have been able to do little or moth
ing among Romanists. Though they
do little praying in secret, yet they
have family prayer, every theatrical
performance. any dancing party un.
der their charge is opened with
prayer and closed with the benedic-
ton. Every good Mormon is bap-
tized once year, and he is also bap-
tized for his ancestors. They marry
more than we do outside of pO-
lygamy. They marry for eternity.
Celestial marriage is their glory.
They nave more complete Organi-
zation than any other religious one.
They nave twelve live apostles. some
of them so live that they can swear.
A great many of their bishops swear,

They have a priesthood and many

dec. The priest has the power of
performing miracles, to speak with
many tongues and to interpret. He
has the power Of saving women. He
is the only one who can lift up a
woman into any kind Of respectable
heaven. The priest expects in the
future life TO have his special domain
where he will be the god. AS in their
theology Adam is a god. He dele
gates his power to his vice-general on
earth, the head of the Mormon state.
An honest, true Mormon cannot,
therefore, be a loyal citizen of any
government on earth until that gov
eminent becomes subject to the head
of the Mormon church. So, while
the Christian life is self-crucifixion.
while the Mormon system reverses
things, an honest Mormon is relig-
ious Pharisee. He smiles at the idea
of our coming there to do missionary
work. He accepts every word Of our
Bible. But they have book of reve-
lations to Joseph Smith, the book of
doctrines. and covenants, made after

In Democratic city, in Democrat
fc State, during a Democratic admin

this winter more aggressive than ev-

party in power after two years ex-

question in which the people of this
country take a rational interest. On
questions of currency, the coinage,
the banking system, labor, the civil
service. the internal revenue, the
remedy for illiteracy, the tariff, there
is open antagonism between the lead
ers of the Administration party.
Much of the discomfort and depres

to the discord and utter helplessness
of the party in power.

wise admooition.
The beauty, excellence and nobility
Of good character; the ignobility Of
a bad character, were so cOntrasted
painted and analysed as to leave in
